Is this quest bugged? I finished the quest "A True Naval Commander" but this quest hasn't appeared yet...

To be clear this quest once completed gives you 2 more ship slots and the submarine plans. The follow up is for the carrier.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
